About Sonablock

Mineral-bonded wood wool. Serious acoustic performance.

Sonablock panels are made from long-strand wood wool fibres bound with Portland cement. The mineral matrix makes them dimensionally stable and completely free of VOCs. The open fibrous structure provides excellent mid and high-frequency sound absorption — reducing echo and reverberation in spaces where clarity matters.

Available in three fibre sizes (1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm) that affect both the visual texture and acoustic character, and in five colours — from natural cement grey to painted White, Light Grey, Dark Grey and Black.

Designed for walls and ceilings in commercial and public interiors: offices, schools, hospitality venues, sports facilities and high-end residential projects where both fire compliance and sound quality are non-negotiable.

Every panel is manufactured by Stiga RM at their production facility in Kuldīga, Latvia — one of Europe’s most modern wood wool cement board production lines. The facility uses AI-assisted quality control to inspect each board during production, ensuring consistent density, surface finish and dimensional accuracy across every batch.

The spruce wood wool is sourced from PEFC-certified forests, with full chain-of-custody certification (BMCERT-PEFC-COC-00175, valid to Feb 2028). Manufactured in the EU with a short, fully traceable supply chain — backed by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD-IES-0031288, valid to 2031).

Technical Specifications

Composition

Mineralised spruce wood wool bonded with Portland cement. No adhesives, no binders, no off-gassing.

Thickness

25 mm. Also available in 15 mm and 35 mm — contact us for details.

Panel sizes

600 × 600 mm · 1200 × 600 mm · 2400 × 600 mm. Ordered per panel.

Fibre sizes

1.0 mm — fine texture, highest acoustic density.
1.5 mm — balanced look and performance.
2.0 mm — coarser texture, industrial aesthetic.

Fire classification

Class B-s1,d0 (EN 13501-1) — low smoke, no flaming droplets. Suitable for escape routes, public buildings and all spaces with strict fire requirements. Class A1 variant in development.*

Acoustic performance

Weighted sound absorption coefficient αw 0.70–0.85 depending on mounting method and fibre size. Effective at mid and high frequencies.

Colours

Natural (cement grey) · White RAL 9010 · Light Grey RAL 7035 · Dark Grey RAL 7004 · Black RAL 9011. Custom RAL/NCS colours and custom printed panels available on request.

Weight

Approx. 13–15 kg/m² at 25 mm. Factor wall fixing load capacity when planning ceiling installations.

Min. order

Minimum order 1 pallet ≈ 50 m². Use the project calculator to plan your order.

* Class A1 (non-combustible) classification is currently in development. Current certified fire class is B-s1,d0 per EN 13501-1.

How to Install

1
Surface prep: Wall or ceiling must be structurally sound, clean and dry. Suitable for concrete, blockwork, plasterboard and steel framing systems.
2
Acclimatise: Store panels flat in the installation space for 24 hours before fixing. Mineral-bonded boards are stable but benefit from equilibration in humid environments.
3
Fixing method: MS polymer or PU construction adhesive directly to wall. For ceiling or heavy-load walls add mechanical fixings (screws into the board face or concealed clip rail system).
4
Air gap: For maximum acoustic performance leave a 25–50 mm air gap between the panel back and the hard wall surface. Cavity depth significantly increases low-frequency absorption.
5
Cutting: Angle grinder with diamond blade, circular saw with masonry blade, or jigsaw with carbide blade. Dust mask required — cement fibre dust. Cut edges can be painted to match.
6
Jointing: Panels can be butted tight or left with a 3–5 mm shadow gap. The gap creates a subtle grid pattern and allows for minor building movement without cracking.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mm fibre sizes?

+

Fibre size affects both the visual texture and acoustic performance. The 1.0 mm fibre gives a fine, even surface and slightly higher density — ideal for commercial spaces wanting a refined look. The 1.5 mm is the most popular all-rounder. The 2.0 mm has a coarser, more industrial texture and is often chosen for raw, loft-style interiors. Acoustic absorption differences are modest; mounting method and air gap have a greater impact.

Are these panels suitable for ceilings?

+

Yes — the 25 mm panels are regularly used for ceiling installations in commercial projects. Ceiling fixing requires mechanical fixings (screws or a clip rail system) in addition to adhesive due to the panel weight of approximately 13–15 kg/m². Always verify the ceiling substrate’s load capacity before installation.

What is the minimum order quantity?

+

The minimum order is 1 pallet, which covers approximately 50 m². Orders below 1 pallet may incur a handling surcharge. Use the Sonablock project calculator to estimate how many panels you need and whether your order reaches a full pallet.

Can the panels be painted?

+

Yes — all five standard colours are factory-applied. If you need a different RAL colour or want to refresh cut edges on site, the panels accept standard mineral-based masonry paints. Use a roller and apply two thin coats for even penetration into the fibrous surface. We do not recommend gloss or film-forming paints as they partially block the acoustic absorption.

Are these panels suitable for wet or humid areas?

+

The cement-bonded wood wool core has good moisture resistance and will not rot or swell, but is not designed for direct water contact. Suitable for kitchens, changing rooms and covered outdoor areas. Not recommended for direct shower splashzones or exterior facades exposed to rain without a protective overhang.

Can I get physical samples?

+

Yes — we recommend ordering samples before committing to a full pallet, especially if you are comparing fibre sizes or colours on site. Contact us with the fibre size and colour combination you are interested in and we will arrange sample delivery within 3–5 business days.
